Can people be so
dumb as to believe that there is any truth in the hugely expensive bought ads
that a body, most likely representing the man himself, retired Major Nissanka
Senadhipathi, is putting in double page spreads, on Sundays, in the most
expensive newspaper for Ads in Sri Lanka?

These ads give sources
of people who purport to deify this man
who has helped them out of tight spots, with money, and when one reads some of
the reasons, they defy imagination, as after the particular operation was paid
for or need fulfilled, he continues to make this monthly payment with NO strings
to date! Either he is a fool, a liar or a charlatan, as otherwise no rational
Human Being who helps people will continue to assist them when they NO LONGER
require such assistance.

Giving this man
the benefit of the doubt as a caring person, who spends Millions a year helping
the needy, does that justify him not being hounded or prosecuted for crimes?
Put simply, for one who say helps people to the tune of Rs50M a year, and who
does not pay even Rs5M a year in taxes, as all his income is from the export of
services and is therefore tax free, he must be earning Rs5B a year from his
Business!

The Company
Avant Garde Services will not disclose this income because it would be open to
threats and Extortion in Sri Lanka, so most of the money is earned in off shore
companies from which he can fund his charitable activities without prying eyes
or people asking where he gets the money from.

He is fortunate
to earn foreign exchange in a business that has Security Consultants as the
customer base. By definition most of these companies wish to be under the radar
as they are run by ex-servicemen, who wish to keep their activities hidden from
the Tax authorities in their own countries just as much as Senadhipathi wishes
to keep out of SL prying eyes.

That is how his
motto, of there is always a price for everything, he is able to demand loyalty
or more correctly buy loyalty, as Sri Lankans are willing to sell their soul
for a few bucks to the highest bidder, and there is NO one not even the GOSL
who will offer more to set him up.

So if it comes
to hiring prostitutes for senior officials to have them in compromising
positions so they don’t squeal, or ensuring his name is untainted, he is able
to buy that.

The
investigations by GOSL on Avant Garde are unable to find the real crimes, as it
is the last Govt. that has given him a MONOPOLISTIC certificate to carry out
all international transactions. You therefore have a license to print money. If
there was competition, then there will be many more. It is impossible to
prove if this was paid for! (Bribe)

When one looks at the
fact that he has the past three Navy Commanders as his consultants on a massive
retainer, he has simply denied the SL Navy this revenue in favor of him, and
when he needs the services of the SL Navy, he can count on it on an as needed basis.
That is the problem, but the investigators have no clue how to get him for the
real crime.
